Federal Judge: Arizona Abortion Law Can Take Effect

“Arizona’s ban on abortions starting at 20 weeks of pregnancy will take effect this week as scheduled after a federal judge ruled Monday that the new law is constitutional,” reports Fox News.

This is great news. Arkansas Right to Life spearheaded a 20-week ban here in Arkansas during the last legislative session, but it was defeated. From what I can remember, opponents of the law argued that it could be unconstitutional. This ruling on the Arizona law could help us defend the similar effort underway in Arkansas.
